Remarks

There are mostly positive reviews as this is a wonderful place to study. it is also a ragging free campus.In my opinion the placements can be improved for other branches like civil, production, mechanical etc.

Course Curriculum Overview

The college provides a very good curriculum and there will be two series test in each semester along with the final university exam. It will be a continuous evaluation, there will be weightage from the series test as well. The final marks results from the overall semester performance.

Placement Experience

The placements are good for mostly the computer science and electronics engineering batch. I will say the placement scenario is growing year by year and better packages with companies are coming each year. Most of the students find internship by themselves as the companies coming for internship are very low.

College Events

4.5

Tech fest named Vyvidh Onam celebration Christmas celebration Independence day Republic day Kerala piravi World environment day Teachers day College day Fresher's day Arts day These special days are celebrated with utmost participation from all the students and teachers.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is moderate compared to the other colleges.For the spot admission and NRI category students the fees is a bit high compared to the other.They will have to pay an initial deposit of 1 lakh at the starting of the course.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have not availed any scholarships as of now. But there are many scholarships given to other students. There are merit based scholarships, scholarships for single girl child. I have seen many of my classmates avail them.

Campus Life

4.5

There are many extracurricular activities here compared to the other engineering colleges. Sports training, cultural activities, literature activities are all very active in the college. the college also conducts competitions to boost the students talent.

Hostel Facilities

The hostel is very good. Even if I don't avail the hostel services, my friends say they are good and the food is also nice. Rooms are spacious. There are badminton courts and other facilities for recreation.

External Expense: Rs.7000 - Rs.10000

Alumni/Alumna

Vidya has a got a very vast and strong alumni network.They also conduct frequent alumni meetings to strengthen their bond. They are very helpful as we can approach them for any queries regarding the college or problems related to it.

Admission

Firstly you have to take the engineering entrance exam and acquire the required marks and rank.After the results the college will call you for the seat allotment process where you will have to go to the college and the admission takes place. The fees should be paid after the seat is allocated to you.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty is well qualified and the teaching is great. Apart from some faculty members all others are very friendly and approachable. They will guide us through out the course and will help us get a good report on our final project which forms a crucial part of our syllabus.

The overall environment here is great. Students coming from different backgrounds make us more capable of meeting new people who have different ideas and that makes things easier,apart from achieving technical greatness ,curtain clubs are here
These clubs gives opportunities to gain new skills and to showcase our existing skills, sports clubs are also present which will help improve skills in sports
Cultural clubs , technical clubs are also present here to aid in your interest

Placement Experience:

Upon reaching s7 students are invited for campus placement but they have to pass different criteria to become eligible for attending the interview, a minimum cgpa of 7.5 and academic skills a these are the basic requirements and an aptitude test will be given and in further selection these criteria are looked. I plan on pursuing a job after completing by btech. More than half the students in a batch are getting placed usually.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because the curriculum covers key subjects like Python, Machine Learning, Data Science, and Deep Learning right from the early semesters. The inclusion of electives such as IoT, Cloud Computing, and NLP made it future-relevant and versatile.

Campus, comparing from nearby college this college had good visual beauty may be because of the college been part 2-3 movies. Visually the college are too good with nature

Dislikes

The Placement is weak as there is no opportunity to get a proper core based job from what you studied mainly job opportunities come from call centres which doesnt require Btech to study. This personally felt too sad to be here to get placed in core.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As of the college comes under Ktu syllabus it has already has demerits of the university. Curriculum basically doesnot provide a realworld application uses. Just creates a knowledge on the course (and thats doubt) We need to courses outside the college to get the core jobs outside

The college provides a good atmosphere to truly get a job in the competetive world if we are willing to work for it.
They heavily monitor attendance to make sure that you take your classes so that you perform well in your exams
The facilities provided by the college are good as there are several labs and workshops for hands-on experience

Dislikes

The campus life can get boring and it feels like we are in a rat race.
Some teachers can be a bit apathetic towards the students.
The number events that encourage social interactions in not many

Placement Experience:

The students are elegible for campus placements from the 7th semester and almost all students get placements provided they don't have any subject yet to clear at the time of placement. There are several companies that visit the college for recruiting including but not limited to TCS, CTS,etc,.

Placement Experience:

From the 6th semester students become eligible for campus placements. So many companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Gst Global, etc. are visited for placements. These companies provide placement for all the branches of the college. 90 percent of the students get placements. I prefer to go for higher studies after getting the degree.

As I was a NRI student I hadn't much options to choose but this college is the best private college in Thrissur and it's quite easy for me as a daily scholar to travel from my home to the college.The exams are also done 2 times per sem for internal and it also help us to learn better for the semester examination.The teaching methods are quite useful in here....Read More
